Your Successful Dental Practice: From Burnout to Brilliance

How To Find Success On Purpose, Not Accident

Scott J. Manning, MBA Weekly Report: Life Prosperity and Practice Profit

Last week, I challenged you to take the competition of your life and start playing for keeps, going all-in, and being bolder in order to achieve the very best in every area of your life, not just a successful dental practice.

To be at the pinnacle of yourself as a Life Athlete. This is the point. This is the opposite of going through the motions. Rather, it’s creating movement to continue making progress on yourself.

This is exactly why I delivered the Lifestyle Practice Success training…

There are a lot of ways you can make progress on yourself. The obvious is your health… your nutrition, your sleep, your exercise, your peace of mind.

Getting you to the healthiest place you’ve ever been is also the key to tapping into your personal power and unlocking your true potential.

Yes, it’s a mindset thing, at the same time it is also an energy, positive attitude, self-worth thing too. Go to work on the physical, mental and emotional You simultaneously.

This is what it takes to win. It’s another reason why I’m talking to you about it now. It’s not just about your schedule, your team, your dentistry. Because you are the source of everything else. You deserve and must be at your best for any one else to be at theirs.

In order to achieve peak performance, you need to work on yourself. You have to have time to do it. More disciplined and focused time working on the highest value things is the ticket to your freedom. Invest your minutes wisely because you can make more money but you can’t make more minutes.

You know this. The question is how does it come out in reality of your day-to-day life?

How about your clinical day? Your time to develop a successful dental practice and business? Your health and wellness time? Your time with family?

Here’s my goal for all of my doctors, for you, right here to have a successful dental practice, because it’s a question that never gets asked enough, it’s the question that is most relevant right now…

Are you more on accident or on purpose?

Is your treatment planning, your clinical case development, even your execution in the operatory more accidental or purposeful?

Is your team’s communication, morning huddles, schedule control, engineering, orchestration more accidental or on purpose?

Yes, you can apply this question to every component of your life and practice because the factors of success do not change.

This goes back to my saying… YOUR LIFE IS WORTH IT.

That is why a Lifestyle Practice is the ONLY practice you should even consider. Especially for the doctor who wants more life out of dentistry than in it. It goes beyond work-life balance to your work facilitating your life. It results in you realizing your hopes and dreams and goals and ambitions.

I walk you through precisely how to build your own Lifestyle Practice on my recent webinar. We’ve added the on-demand replay right here…

It would be easy for me to ask you where are you settling in your life right now. Most people are in some way. Well, how about with your team… where are you accepting less than what you actually deserve?

Are you tolerating a schedule being filled with the same type of dentistry as it has always been? Perhaps, it is based on priorities set 10 years ago or even 10 months ago; when in fact you aspire to, believe in, desire so much more.

What are you accepting from yourself that you know you could improve?

How about in your confidence, treatment planning, and diagnosis with patients?

Accepting average and tolerating complacency robs EVERYONE of a better life. Your team, your patients, your family – not just you. So, if you personally aren’t enough of a driving motivation for yourself – do it for everyone else.

That’s really the message here…

Learning to tap into your competitive spirit by embracing (and knowing), your driving motivations. They are the key to breaking through and going beyond anything that is holding you back from achieving your greater goals and self.

That’s the point actually of all of this. In fact, if you can bring to realization your greater self, everything else will follow. The reality is you can’t even begin to grasp the goals you can truly achieve until you can see the clearest version of yourself you desire to become.

That’s the power of personal development. It’s a continuously moving target for your evolving self (depending on what age and stage of life you are in and what is most important to you at the time).

Giving yourself permission to shift and shape the priorities in your life is perhaps the greatest advantage made possible by entrepreneurship … when it’s done right.

Once again, that’s the key. It’s why all this matters. It’s why you need complete and total alignment with your goals and actions. While at the same time understanding that your practice is moldable clay that can be morphed into whatever it needs to be to fit into and facilitate your life as you desire it to be – both now and in the future.

The big difference (and it could very well be the only difference) is this:

Most people are always working with (not even on) the person they are based on where they’ve come from. They are living in the present with a past self. As a result, you are always behind, never ahead leading to you becoming disenchanted, overwhelmed, or even burnt out.

We are going to do something even more dramatic. We will identify your present self in order to create with great intent your future self – and thus your future life.

Move Forward to Create Your Successful Dental Practice…

The final question for today: is your future developing on accident or are you creating, designing, living out your future on purpose.

That clarity brought into every aspect of your life and your practice is the only way to make sound, confident, and exciting decisions in the here and now because they are leading you somewhere; they are leading you to your future.

Together, we are going to craft your best self, best practice, and best life!

All this begins with clarity and it begins with making space in your life for your goals, for your future, for everything you’ve ever wanted. And that’s why I say, “If your goals are worthy enough then you must not delay!”

Allow me to help you create your very own Lifestyle Practice so you too can have it all.
